Yup, that would be a very fair outcome all around - fingers crossed someone in EasyJet has a similar idea. I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

That will never happen as soon as things return to normal
I'll bet you my last quid the airlines will be back to fleecing you for every penny including charging a fortune for reprinting your boarding pass and the nonsense with cabin baggage

Just had a look at Plane Finder app with various filters set up. Gatwick has the grand title of 3 aircraft showing, incl both in & out.

Early April as a Christmas prezzie we were off to Venice
Flights with Easyjet refunded but still waiting on the cash
Hotel with Expedia - cant get an answer
What I have learned is that Mastercard have issued guidelines to their call centres that if any of the terms and conditions mention 'Non refundable' in the booking then they have no power to act.
I had a 30 min wait last week to speak to them then was told that I must be patient and give the companies at least 2 weeks to respond because they may be busy. No mention of me being given any extra 2 weeks grace to pay the credit card though!
So whilst I do have sympathy for these companies at a time like these, it very much feels like as per usual its the customer who will pay the price.
Looks like the next port of call will be my travel insurance which in the past have been superb, we have a group annual insurance and they usually jump through hoops for their customers.
16th March refunded requested from Easyjet
Email today from Expedia offering a refund for the hotel
